Gout knee is an inflammatory condition characterised by intense pain, swelling and redness of the knee joint. Gout affects approximately 1-2 people in every 100, affecting one million Americans each year. Men are 2-3 times more likely to be affected than women. The peak age of incidence is 75.
If you experience sudden attacks of severe knee pain and your knee also becomes red and hot, the cause is likely to be gout, which is a type of arthritis. Gout is caused by a build-up of uric acid (a waste product) in the body, which can form crystals in the joints. These crystals cause the joints to become inflamed and painful. Gout will cause severe pain in the knee and limit movement of the joint. You may feel pain even when you're resting, including at night.
